Ashley Roberts says it would be "awesome" if she could reunite with Nicole Scherzinger on 'The X Factor' judging panel because the pair could form a "good team" as they did in the Pussycat Dolls

The 'Dancing on Ice' judge - who shot to fame in girl group Pussycat Dolls alongside the brunette singer - said she would "definitely" be keen on joining the panel of the singing talent show to form a "good team" with the 'Boomerang' hitmaker.

She told Digital Spy: "['X Factor' would] be awesome. I haven't heard anything in that direction though, but it'd be fun.

"[Nicole and I] made a good team before, so I think we could do it again."

Ashley has been tipped to replace outspoken judge Jason Gardiner as the "Mr. Nasty" member of the 'Dancing on Ice' panel following her harsh marking, but she doesn't want to be seen as a ruthless reviewer on the show.

She added: "Oh my God, no! I hope I don't replace him because I don't want to be a bad guy. I'm just giving my critique and I care a lot about the performance side of things."

The 31-year-old beauty recently revealed judging on 'Dancing on Ice' has inspired her to learn how to ice skate after being left so impressed with the contestants.

She said: "I'm not on the ice everyday but it's giving me that itch to get out there. I just see them out there performing and I'm like, 'I want to get out there and do a performance.' "
